A collection of goths so dense they’re in danger of collapsing into a black hole, The Addams Family embraces all thing gothic with a deliciously dark delight. Charles Addams’s original satirical one-panel cartoons – which started life in 1938 in The New Yorker – introduced the Addams, an American family who loved the grotesque and bizarre but didn’t actually consider themselves anything other than an ordinary family. They were also totally unaware that people outside the family thought they were all freaks. Mum Morticia (though, fact fans, none of the characters were named until the ’60s TV series) would cut the heads off flowers; daughter Wednesday would find bizarre ways to torture brother Pugsley or tell Brownies that she had made brownies from real Brownies; Dad Gomez liked nothing better than to crash his toy trains. Oh, and grandmama was a witch, which probably explains a lot.
